In recent years, companies have allocated substantial resources, with some estimates suggesting upwards of $1.4 billion annually on workforce training, particularly in areas like enhancing safety, reducing environmental impact, and improving operational skills, especially as the industry embraces the energy transition.
Cineon has worked with major oil companies like Total and BP to perform a Cognitive Task Analysis in order to understand the safety behaviours and attentional control of their refinery workers; this analysis informed the design of subsequent VR simulations that they have used for training.
Our Empathic Learning Engine (ELE), through software like INCORA, can bring several benefits to the sector by enhancing safety, efficiency, and workforce well-being:
Training and Development:
ELE can be integrated into immersive training programs to track emotional reactions to simulated scenarios. This enables personalised feedback, helping workers better handle high-stress situations in real life, leading to improved crisis management and emotional resilience.
Safety Monitoring:
Emotion AI can analyse workers’ emotional states, identifying stress, fatigue, or distraction, which are critical risk factors in hazardous environments like oil rigs or refineries. This can trigger real-time interventions to prevent accidents and improve safety protocols.
Enhanced Decision-Making:
In high-pressure situations, such as crisis management or emergency response, emotion AI can track emotional stress levels, allowing managers to identify when workers are emotionally overwhelmed, which can affect decision-making. This can help in optimising workflows and improving responses under stress.
Employee Well-being:
Long shifts and remote work environments in oil and gas can take a toll on mental health. Emotion AI tools can monitor employee well-being over time, providing insights for employers to offer necessary support and create a healthier, more engaged workforce.
By applying Cineon’s technology, the oil and gas sector can reduce human errors, enhance operational safety, and promote better decision-making and well-being across its workforce
Emotion AI can offer transformative benefits to the pharmaceutical industry, particularly in areas like patient engagement, clinical trials, and personalised medicine.
Enhancing Clinical Trials
Emotion AI can monitor patients’ emotional responses to treatments during clinical trials. By analysing the emotional state of the patient, it can provide real-time feedback on how patients feel about side effects, compliance, and overall treatment effectiveness. This can lead to more accurate trial results and improved patient retention.
Improving Patient Adherence
One of the biggest challenges in pharmaceuticals is ensuring that patients adhere to their prescribed medication regimens. Emotion AI, integrated into digital health platforms, can detect when patients are feeling stressed, anxious, or unmotivated, providing real-time interventions or reminders to improve adherence.
Personalised Healthcare Solutions
Emotion AI can help pharmaceutical companies develop personalised treatment plans by understanding patients’ emotional and cognitive responses to medications. This can lead to more tailored therapies that consider both the physical and emotional well-being of the patient, making treatments more effective.
Incorporating emotion AI into the pharmaceutical industry enables better understanding of patient experiences, optimises drug development, and ensures more effective and tailored treatments.
